Nope - they haven't even started the pay rise talks yet :sad: and I think the rise in some of the Pensions is linked to that.

The % increase for pensioners is based on inflation in September, so depending on whether RM use RPI or CPI as i can't remember, your increase will be either 2.6% (RPI) or 2.2% (CPI).
Links to all RM pension related websites are here
